English Paper Piecing – Quilts & Adventures

To Do Tuesday #173

Wow this week flew by! I can’t believe it is already Tuesday again. My calendar has been packed with “doing things”. Still attending a number of live Zoom seminars on various subjects which are interesting as well as meeting with vendors for my home as I gear up to do some sewing studio basic upgrades such as wiring and lights. Plus some shades for each of the sewing rooms. PNW is an interesting beast with the darker winters and the very light summers. When the sun shines, it is unbelievably blue skies. When it rains, we have some many shades of gray that nature provides that it could teach fabric & quilt designers a thing or two about color.

I will be linking up with Carol’s Schmilt To Do Tuesday again this week. Just click on Blog Post at the top of the page to find the link to To Do Tuesday for this week.

It is here. ☔️. The rain has arrived here in the Pacific Northwest. We even had a little sleet yesterday. They said it would snow. I couldn’t see how that would happen. It is just not cold enough. The cool thing about the rain here is the sun often peeks out through out the day. 🌦️ So cool. I even seen the most amazing rainbows🌈

I plan to link up with Carol who is also in the Pacific Northwest just more North. Check out all the projects.

Hello Quilty Friends! How is your February going? We have had lovely weather here in the PNW – blue skies each afternoon. I know it won’t last, but I am enjoying every day that we get.

Welcome back to my blog Quilty Friends. Today we will be checking out where I stand with my love of all things quilting!

We made it to 2026 my quilty friends! I hope you are enjoying the new year. We have had some interesting weather for this year already here in Vancouver, Washington. We have had rain, sunshine, sleet and in the mountains there was fresh powder then it rained. It all melted here. I am snug as a bug. The weather hasn’t bothered me at all.

I will linking up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday Link Up. Check it out.

Welcome back my quilty friends! Hard to believe Christmas is upon us. I am looking forward to spending time with my daughter. We have lived in different states for over 10 years. Now we are in the same town. I feel like I hardly see her because we are both living our best lives. LOL! Being so close now, we don’t make the time to spend with each other like we did when we lived 3500+ miles apart. I am sure you can relate as well.

I started a new thing since we lasted chatted. I have made a mindful decision to go UPSTAIRS to my sewing studio at least once a day for at least 15 minutes. I have also told myself, I don’t have to sew if I don’t want to but I NEED to visit the studio.

Where did the time go? I can’t believe that another week has gone by. I am trying to think what I have done this week. Doesn’t seem like much. LOL! I ended up getting caught up in reading and probably read 4 books this week instead of hitting the sewing room.

Despite that, I did make it to the sewing room once this week and worked one night on my English paper piecing. I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. Check it out!

Being on the road so much this month is really messing with my blog schedule. I apologize but let’s see if I can get us caught up.

I just got back from a week at Zephyr Cove on Lake Tahoe for my annual quilt retreat with one of Quilt Zoom groups. We had a lot of fun and the weather was perfect. I don’t have very many picutres because I wasn’t outside very much. I was working hard at the sewing machine.
